Whatever could it Be

A band of vampires walk through a valley, in a parade of sorts. All looking diligently for a girl named emma. But they're not looking in the Trees or under rocks, they're looking straight ahead & behind their own shoulders and in their own coat pockets and up with all the clouds. at once the pitter patter, pat dat dah pitaah, pattah of all their dusty walking shoes fades & the only sound is a distant roar. Similar to that of an angry ocean tide let loose from its Cage of gravity. the vampires were surprised to see exactly that, as the roaring waters Grew closer. now all swallowed up by the Sea, the vampires silently allowed themselves to be tossed and taken. One vampire managed to stick his head out of the Water,, just long enough to express "mm salty," before the waves pushed him under again. after a few hours, the vampires fell asleep somehow in the vast bed of dancing ocean. They were beginning to forget about their search, it didn't seem likely that they would ever find Emma now. They didn't even know where in the world they were, or how long theyd been with the waves. a Certain upstanding vampire awoke with a sudden determination. His name was ace and he was a really take charge kind of guy. while all the other vampires were sleeping, ace began to build a ladder. He remembered their search& their purpose& was not going to let a little water clog his sense. he worked night and day on building that ladder until it was of Magnificent height, he climbed to the top, and breathless, stared down at the Waves water below. It was, absolutely, beautiful. as it tossed furiously with an effortless elegance, Ace could see the shadows of the dreaming vampires all below the surface. The wave seemed to notice Ace's high presence. he leaned down a little and said quite loudly "hellow down there!! What is your name?" .."Emma" the wave replied, & all was silent. Ace smiled shyly at having found the lost and, satisfied, down back into the water.
